Tubular Gear

Erin has always enjoyed creating, working to repurpose materials, and focusing on the environment. Once she came across her first box of bike inner tubes, in 2015, she knew she could create products that would divert rubber inner tubes from the landfill, and move them back into a more circular economy. Over the years her business-Tubular Gear-has singlehandedly diverted thousands of bicycle inner tubes from the landfill by repurposing them into useful and unique products such as; dog leashes, journals, zipper bags, koozies, key chains, coin purses, and more.

She works primarily out of her home studio, and lives with her supportive husband, helpful son and their three pets.

Erin McGann began Tubular Gear after she left her teaching profession of Visual Art Instructor to become a stay at home mom.
She holds a BS in Art Education, and Minor in Art History, from Penn State University.
